    Jimmy was sitting in an armchair. Everything was still. Suddenly he broke the silence. He wasnervous. He said, how he hates [!] Sunday! It was always so depressing, always the same. Theynever seemed to get any further. Always the same ritual. Reading the papers, drinking tea, ironing.

    A few more hours, and another week was gone. Their youth was slipping away. He asked Cliff ifhe was aware of that fact. Cliff was reading a newspaper and didn't hear his question. Jimmy sawthis his friend didn't want to speak to him, so he started swearing. Cliff suggested going to thepictures and he wanted to know if Alison agreed. But Alison rejected him saying that she didn'tthink she would be able to and turned to Jimmy with the question if he would like to go. Jimmydidn't like the idea. He said that he didn't want to have his enjoyment ruined by the Sunday nightjobs in the front row. He changed the topic of conversation and asked Cliff if he had readPriestley's piece that week. But immediately he said to himself why on earth he asked he didn'tknow. [!] He knew damned [!] well Cliff hadn't. And why did he spend nine pence on thatdamned paper every week? Nobody read it except him. ....

    Report B:

    Jimmy Porter, a university graduate, lived together with his wife Alison and his friend Cliff Lewisin an attic flat of a large town in the central part of England. Due to their different socialbackground and also partly due to Jimmy's complicated character, they were not getting on very

    well. Jimmy was teasing his wife, nagging at his friend and complaining about their lives andmodern English society. He was especially talkative and annoying on Sundays, because all threeof them had the day off and didn't know how to spend it. One Sunday Jimmy again started hisusual complaints, saying that he hated Sundays, because it was always so depressing, always thesame. It seemed to him that they never got any further, the ritual was always the same: readingpapers, drinking tea, ironing. He felt helpless about the fact that there were only some morehours left and then another week had gone. He claimed that their youth was slipping away andasked his room-mates if they knew that. But, being used to his monologues, Cliff and Alisondidn't pay much attention to what he was talking about, so Jimmy's question merely made Cliffthrow down the paper he was reading, but he hadn't even heard what Jimmy had just said.

    was also used to such a response, he only mumbled something to himself and then cursed hisfriends and the rest of the world. Cliff suggested going to the pictures. He turned to Alison andasked for her opinion. Alison answered that most probably she wouldn't be able to, but shethought perhaps Jimmy would like to go and she asked him about that. Jimmy rejected hersuggestion, because he didn't want to have his enjoyment ruined by the Sunday night jobs in thefront row. A pause followed, and he already went on talking. He asked if they had read Priestley's

    piece that week and immediately answered his question himself saying that he didn't know whyon earth he asked them because he knew damned well that they hadn't readit. He wondered why he spent nine pence on that paper every week since nobody read it excepthim. ...

    J. Arden and M D'Arcy: The Business of Good Government

    Report A:

    Herod wished the Wise Men good morning. They greeted him respectfully and made a formal

    bow. After considering them carefully Herod concluded they were gentlemen from Persia. Black

    Wise Man explained that the Empire of their great king enclosed more than one land. Herod was

    a little irritated by the enigmatic answer, but attempting the same tone he remarked that the

    greatness of a king might be measured less by his lands than by the devotion of his subjects.

    Young Wise Man agreed saying fine men of righteous life were better than a multitude of

    evildoers, and Black Wise Man added evil was more of the mind than of the actions, as the

    slothful man was in many ways found worse than the murderer. Old Wise Man continued that we

    surely must die if we can say that we live, and wondered who would number the self-deceivings
